The Big Ten had a recent history of holding events at Wrigley Field, with the Northwestern Wildcats football team having held several football games at the stadium since 2010. As a result, the hockey matches featuring Ohio State teams were not the first Ohio State sports matches to be held at Wrigley Field, as its football team had played a game against Northwestern there in November 2024.

Since the Big Ten Conference has an odd-number of men's ice hockey teams (seven), one of the conference's teams (Minnesota) did not participate in the Frozen Confines.

Fenway Park in Boston, the other surviving Major League Baseball jewel box ballpark, had previously several times held similar multi-game college hockey series under the name "Frozen Fenway", with most teams in its series being from the ECAC Hockey and Hockey East. Fenway Park first held such a multi-game series in 2010 (in conjunction with the 2010 NHL Winter Classic at thaw stadium), and most recently held one in 2023 (in conjunction with the 2023 NHL Winter Classic at the stadium). Stand-alone editions of Frozen Fenway (without any partnered NHL event) were held in 2012, 2013/14, and 2017.

Besides the aforementioned 2010 and 2023 Frozen Fenway editions, there had been several earlier instances outdoor college matches being staged in conjunction with professional outdoor hockey matches. In 2011, the Whalers Hockey Fest featuring outdoor collegiate games was held in conjunction with the Whale Bowl (an outdoor AHL professional hockey match) at Rentschler Field (a college football stadium in East Hartford, Connecticut). Similarly, in 2013 Frozen Frontier featured college outdoor hockey games in conjunction with an outdoor AHL game at Frontier Field (a minor league baseball stadium in Rochester, New York). The 2013 Hockeytown Winter Festival held at Comerica Park (a Major League Baseball stadium in Detroit) featured college games, an event which also featured the an outdoor AHL game at the same stadium and which was held in conjunction with the 2014 NHL Winter Classic at Michigan Stadium (Michigan's college football stadium, located in Ann Arbor, Michigan). In January 2015, the Toledo Walleye Winterfest featured an outdoor college hockey match in conjunction with outdoor ECHL professional outdoor matches at Fifth Third Field (a Minor League Baseball stadium in Toledo, Ohio). The February 2016 Battle on Blake outdoor college game at Coors Field (a Major League Baseball stadium in Denver) was held in conjunction with a 2016 NHL Stadium Series match at the same venue. The 2019 NHL Winter Classic at Notre Dame Stadium (Notre Dame's college football stadium, located in Notre Dame, Indiana) was accompanied by a men's college hockey match held days later dubbed "Let's Take This Outside".{{cite web |last1=Ray |first1=Olivia |title=Let's take this outside: Irish hockey falls to Michigan inside Notre Dame Stadium, 4- |url=https://wsbt.com/sports/content/lets-take-this-outside-irish-hockey-falls-to-michigan-inside-notre-dame-stadium-4- |website=WSBT |access-date=15 April 2025 |language=en |date=5 January 2019}}{{cite web |title=Notre Dame Hockey Outdoor Game Versus Michigan To Start At 4:30 PM |url=https://fightingirish.com/notre-dame-hockey-outdoor-game-versus-michigan-to-start-at-4-30-pm/ |website=Notre Dame Fighting Irish |access-date=15 April 2025 |date=4 January 2019}}

Most teams wore special alternate jersey which took design cues from baseball jerseys. The exception was Michigan State, which opted to instead wear their usual white "home" jerseys for the games.

Michigan players wore uniforms which took design cues from Chicago Cubs baseball uniforms of the 1980s. The jerseys took inspiration from road jerseys which the Chicago Cubs wore in the 1980s.

The right sleeves featured player numbers in navy blue (with white outlines) using the Chicago Cubs jersey font. This same font and color scheme was also used for the jersey numbers on the back of the jersey. Player names on the backs of the jerseys were also in navy blue with white outlines, and featured text which arched over the player number. The left sleeve featured a patch with the likeness of Biff, the Michigan Wolverine. The hockey socks worn by the school's players were primarily yellow, but featured navy blue panels on the front and the back meant to mimic the shape of Baseball stirrups. The right sleeve featured the player number (which was also included on the back of each jersey). The collars of the jerseys were typical of hockey jerseys. Michigan players also wore helmets with blue-and-yellow "winged" patterns. The hockey pants and gloves worn by their players were navy blue. The pants featured a yellow ("maize") "Block M" logo on the right leg. The jersey design was regarded to be unconventional for the sport of ice hockey.{{cite web |last1=Cook |first1=Glenn |title=Michigan Goes Out to Left Field for Baseball-Inspired Frozen Confines Jerseys |url=https://news.sportslogos.net/2025/01/03/michigan-goes-out-to-left-field-for-baseball-inspired-frozen-confines-jerseys/college/ |website=SportsLogos.Net News |access-date=30 January 2025 |date=3 January 2025}}
